Summary of the Tour

General Highlights

  • Sailing in the Ionian Sea
  • Swimming at idyllic locations
  • Conquering the highest mountain of the Ionian Islands

Sail & Walk is a program of enjoyable adventure. Over a week, we sail the Ionian Sea between the islands of Ithaca, Kefalonia and Lefkas. In the so-called ‘Inland sea’, we have the opportunity to visit up to six islands, covering around 120 nautical miles by sea and up to 70km on foot. We walk through quiet fishing villages, sailing on the deep blue sea, conquering the highest mountain of the Seven Islands of Ionian Sea, swimming at refreshing locations, being rewarded with great views and sleeping with the sounds of the waves. 

Sail & Walk is a beautiful way to experience the sense of freedom that adventure can offer!
